I can tell you why I hate my QA people as a dev. First, most of them don't speak English natively, so trying to figure out what the hell they're talking about is a struggle. Then, they often don't give enough details. "The request doesn't go through sometimes. Other times it's fine." Well that'll be super easy to track down! Also, they report so many bullshit defects. "The font is 2px off of what it is supposed to be." WE'RE NOT TOUCHING THE FONT! WE'RE USING THE CSS GIVEN TO US FROM STANDARDS! FIND REAL ISSUES AND STOP CLOGGING UP THE DEFECT TRACKER WITH GARBAGE. A super annoying project is coming to an end soon and it's been a real pain for the last few months. /rage

We have QA people like that on our team too and it's damn annoying when they finally find a fix for the vague issue and now I have to test it and have no idea what the hell is going on.

I try to be very detailed in my tickets about what the problem is and how to reproduce it. And I make sure I can reproduce it several times before I even put it in.

Quality QA & Devs unite!

I remember when a CAG made a fake blog about Microsoft coming out with the "Xbox Pure". Brian Crecente at Kotaku reported on it without bothering to research it, and then he cried about ethics in game journalism when he found out he'd been gotten.

If that was before any of you people's time here, google it. It was pretty funny at the time.

Those butthurt last couple lines on the Kotaku post are hilarious.

That was interesting but I'm not a big fan of people intentionally deceiving others with made up rumors. The Rayman in Smash one is even more intricate and impressive but equally as frustrating because so much effort is put into something that is made specifically to fool others.

My favorite thing at work is if you forget to do something you get the:

"I'm not sure if you know how to do this, so let me talk to you like you don't know...." speech.

Yes, because I forgot to check reagent expiration one time when I  was busy training one person and covering two areas,  I don't know how to check reagents and need the process explained to me. Even though I do that every time in the department and haven't had a single complaint about this ever. (Compared to others who frequently do leave reagent shorts and expired)

/end rant

 
Got turned down for PM + Cartwheel, even though it was their own pricing. Lame. Made up for it with a Qdoba burrito though. Might try another target if the deal still works on Saturday if not I'll just wait for it to hit ~20 with GCU.

That's lame sauce. Good trick is to buy other things besides the price matched/Cartwheel item. So you ask for the price match, then after that is entered you say "Oh can I check out the rest of my stuff now then?" Then after that's all in do the "Oh yeah I have Cartwheel too" and boom goes the dynamite.

And the Evil Within offer is good through May 2, so you got time as long as T.com pricing holds.

Seriously why did Arby's make it this far. Everything I've ever gotten there has been blah to me. I'll eat lunch there tomorrow if you guys can tell me the one thing there that is so good to put it in the final 4 for fast food chains.
